There are six digital billboards that the game would be advertised on:

  • Two billboards I-77 north of S.R. 162 on Copley Road (one facing south and one facing north)
  • Two billboards on S.R. 8 north of I-76 (one facing north and one facing south)

Clear Channel Outdoor, which manages the billboards and the program, estimates that about 1.5 million see the digital billboards during commutes. 

The billboard design would run Thursday, Friday and during the game.

After the game, the billboard will announce the winning team as well as some highlights and headlines from the game, said Clear Channel Outdoor's Akron/Canton Area Manager Megan Waite.

Possible things posted on the billboard will be "leading scorers, leading rushers, props to the cheerleaders or marching bands ... just some statements to actually highlight the game and some of the athletes and other important students involved in the excitement," she said.
